Some Dreamweaver Features
|
Integrated Text Editor
|
Hand coding is now as comfortable as working in Design View, with code-centric features such as auto-indenting, punctuation balancing, and the ability to select multiple lines and indent them all at once. Navigate between JavaScript functions defined in a document using a drop-down list in the Code View Toolbar. Code Navigation is an efficient navigation aid for professionals who are working with JavaScript. HTML and JavaScript are automatically color-coded as you type.

New split-pane environment lets you work visually or have a full-page code view without leaving the Document Window. See the Code and Design Views in the same window at the same time or edit the code for multiple documents at the same time.

Javascript Debugger

Debug client-side JavaScript directly in your browser. The new JavaScript Debugger lets you watch JavaScript as it executes in Netscape or Internet Explorer, providing a better understanding of how each browser implements JavaScript. Debug your code by setting breakpoints and then watching your variables update as you step through the code.

Powerful visual design features include drag-and-drop tables, images, and layers. Standard View provides a rich WYSIWYG environment for editing pages.
